Lacey Drain Plumbing Services

Drain Cleaning, Installation & Repair in Lacey, WA

Plumbing has two basic functions: get water in, take water out. That makes the drain the most fundamental component of your plumbing system. A slow drain makes your plumbing less efficient and puts strain on your pipes, while a blocked drain traps sewage and gray water in your home. Keeping your drains and sewer lines clear keeps your family healthy by reducing the amount of wastewater that hangs around sinks, tubs, dishwashers, and more.

When it comes to drain cleaning in Lacey, we have a single goal: give you peace of mind with fast, responsive plumbing expertise.

Common Causes for Drain Cleaning in Lacey

Soap, residue, hair, food waste, dead skin, and other things that wash down the drain accumulate over time. While there are certain things we can do to slow down this accumulation, it’s inevitable that drains will form blockages. Blockages slow down the outflow of wastewater until, if they progress far enough, they create clogs.

Here are the common signs of a significant clog in your drains:

• Water drains slowly in the sink and shower
• Drains make a bubbling or gurgling sound
• Drains begin to give off a bad odor
• The toilet increasingly floods or clogs after flushing
• Toilet bowl water level isn’t consistent
• The bathroom sink floods when the toilet flushes

All these signs point toward an advanced clog in the drain line. While some superficial clogs can be handled via tools or chemicals from hardware stores, you’ll find that these items won’t work for very long. These kinds of clogs require professional tools and professional training.

Clogged Drains & Pipe Longevity

The problem with ignoring slow drains, even if they still ‘work,’ is that drain blockages put additional strain on all your drain lines. Higher pressure over long periods of time reduce their strength, making it more likely that you’ll end up with a leak somewhere in your drain. Depending on where a leak appears, it could be a costly disruption to your life.

Our Lacey drain plumbers use multiple proven methods to clear your lines:

• Snaking
• Hydro jetting
• Rooter service

Each of these methods can reach anywhere in your lines and reliably clear away years’ worth of buildup. These are far, far more effective than anything you’ll find on DIY sites or consumer hardware stores. To ensure we find blockages quickly, our plumbers are equipped for video pipe inspections. Using a drain camera allows us to find clogs and locate other problems too. For example, root intrusions are often a secondary cause of drain clogs, and neither chemicals nor augers will reach them (much less affect them).
